Now you have me looking through Paph books. Smiling
In my book by Koopowitz and Hasegawa there list of species frm the RHS has both Chamberlainianum and Victoria-regina (which they say is the same as Liemianum). They also list Glaucophyllum and that Moquettianums the same as it.
Maybe mines a old book? says published in 1989 but does refer to a 1940 release. Maybe this informations from then?
My other book from 1990 by the Australian orchid council lists both glauc. and Moquett., saying moquett. likes it warmer than glauc.
It doesn't list chamber. or victoria-reg. but does have victoria-mariae and a Liemiana?
Very confusing Hilarious!

I would say we have hit a black hole! OrchidWiz gets updated quarterly. I got this version in March 2010. But who knows what it all means!

Moquettianum is certainly the nicest in my opinion. I've tried it and primary hybrids from it and they always die...it is the only paph I've tried that I have had absolutely no luck with cultivating.

I love it too and need to see more floofy. Here is a new Phal. Baldans 'Hawaiian Spice' that just arrived today. It has a nice keiki attached besides this spike. I appreciate the way growers so lovingly wrap the blooming orchids.

This is my NOID dendrobium from the orphan table at HD. It was labeled Cattleya. It took me five years to see a bloom but it is ready for showtime now.

A look at the plant. Does anyone think it could be Dendrobium Anosmum?
